Bret Baier:
Here is the email I read on the air tonight
This message came to us from Bill in Kentucky.
“Putting things in perspective: March 21st 2010 to October 1 2013 is 3 years, 6 months, 10 days. December 7, 1941 to May 8, 1945 is 3 years, 5 months, 1 day. What this means is that in the time we were attacked at Pearl Harbor to the day Germany surrendered is not enough time for this progressive federal government to build a working webpage. Mobilization of millions, building tens of thousands of tanks, planes, jeeps, subs, cruisers, destroyers, torpedoes, millions upon millions of guns, bombs, ammo, etc. Turning the tide in North Africa, Invading Italy, D-Day, Battle of the Bulge, Race to Berlin – all while we were also fighting the Japanese in the Pacific!! And in that amount of time – this administration can’t build a working webpage.”
Paper-pushers and their regulations are meant to GUM UP WORKS not create product.
Obama operates on the Peter Pan principal that if you believe strongly enough (proved by hand-clapping) a poisoned Tinkerbelle can be brought to full health.
Reality is not so simple.
That was then.
This is now.
Then we were concerned about a juggernaut rolling over us. So we fought.
Now it is the Government which is the juggernaut rolling over is. We have to figure out how to fight together against this new enemy, which wants to take away our life, our liberty, and our prosperity.
Tea Party, anyone?
Back THEN, we were fighting for our COUNTRY. Now, we are supposed to fight for our GOVERNMENT. With all of the generals there are in the obama administration, and each one wanting their way, I can see why it takes so long to get ANYTHING done.
For example, the programers said the web site was ready, until the obama administration found out that the people could log on anonymously and get the prices. When the obama administration found this out, they said they wanted the personal info FIRST. That way, even if a person doesn’t sign up, they still have all of the individual’s info. It wouldn’t surprise me if the lack of security was planned, so that identities could be stolen. Remember, obama came from Illinois, and that is part of The Illinois Way.
During the Second World War, America was united in purpose. One party hadn’t been subverted and turned into a Fifth Column movement.
@Greg: Americans who were given a job were competent and did it well. They didn’t hire college buddies for high priced contracts.
